On the second extra hole, Sarazen hooked a tee shot that was a few feet from going out-of-bounds. Sarazen — whose birth name was Eugenio Saraceni — later said Hagen complained there was spaghetti sauce on the ball. "He said the greens keeper lived there and was eating spaghetti and threw the ball back out," Sarazen said in a 1999 interview.

From deep rough, Sarazen slashed it onto the green to 2 feet away. Hagen was in a bunker and nearly holed it. That left Sarazen a short putt, which he made to win in 38 holes for his second straight PGA title. A year later, Hagen began his run of four in a row.
